Update on Nora: She has had a slight improvement since receiving the epidural last week, but is still in a great deal of pain. She is waiting to be contacted by her doctor about what the next step needs to be. Please keep her in your prayers.
Since I was banished from the kitchen for a couple of weeks this summer while the renovations were going on I was able to work on another baby quilt from the book in this post. I highly recommend this author's books. The designs are simple and the directions are very clear.
I was able to make this little quilt for a baby girl who is expected to arrive in the home of some friends from church in just a few weeks.
I'm still not comfortable with free-motion quilting so I ended up stitching in the ditch for the quilting. It was a lot of fun working with the "girly" colors and this design went together quickly.
Have any of you been working on sewing projects recently?
Becka

Becka, This quilt is really cute! Love the colors. I am being bombarded on all sides with beautiful fabrics and quilting. I so want to learn how to do this, but I am a complete non-sewer! Maybe one day….

Becka ~ I LOVE it!! I especially love the big round circles; that fabric makes the quilt! Great job!

Love the quilt, Mrs. Loach! The colors and prints are great! I love the sewing thing (finished a slip cover of a way-too-loud chair in July); but I’m afraid that I’ve become knit-a-holic. I have a cropped swing sweater for my DD Olivia on the needles. It’s navy blue and a blend of merino wool, mircofiber and cashmere (which is kind of dreamy). It’s knit from the top down in one piece — there’s a pic here — http://www.chicknits.com/catalog/eyeletcardi.html.
